I was wondering if anyone knew of any flying jobs available in Italy. I am currently a first officer for USAirways Express in the ERJ-145 and have both an Italian and American passport. Any help would be appreciated.

stay where you are dude!!!

Is the job situation that bad there?

No it's not that bad (especially for experienced pilots) but why would you leave USex. to come here????

With your EMB type, you could join Alitalia-Express after you paid a training with Alitalia-school Skymaster.
Once Alitalia goes bancrupt, then Express takes over all landing rights and keeps the name and logo.
You will be flying the flag-carrier and be among the nations elite-pilots.
Anyway.....thats what happened before in Belgium with Sabena.

scar1900,
if you have flight experience on the EMB and a JAA license (or Italian License...) you can apply for a 'direct entry' FO position with Alitalia Express and don't have to go through the SkyMaster School.
It doesn't mean you'll get the job right away, though!

1900,

if you need any contact P.M. me.

regards

Once again: why would you leave USex for AZex?I know things at US Airways are not too bright but things at AZ are surely worse...much worse.
By the way skymaster does not exist anymore,there's no more an AZ school.

I'm also in the ERJ (left seat at Chautauqua), and also applied to AZ and Meridiana. All I got was a thanks but no thanks.
I suggest you look somewhere else in Europe (UK especially). BTW, you need a JAA license, though a validation can get you going for a while. You can find accurate information on how to convert your FAA license in this forum, but should you need help, let me know.
